Rest. La Luz is the best, I had the opportunity to have lunch with my colleagues after a business meeting and everything was fantastic, the food, the service, the views of San Jose from the restaurant, the privacy of the hotel. I choose it also to go for dinner and at night is even better, very recommended!!!

Stayed at this hotel and ate the breakfast and lunch at the hotel. Good selections for breakfast (American, continental or Costa Rican) and the lunch menu also had good selections. Food was very tasty, had the grilled chicken in passion fruit sauce with cassava and grilled tomatoes and a caprise salad. Very efficient service and reasonable prices.

We had several really great meals at La Luz during our time at the Alta Hotel. Really unique and inspired international cuisine that's still definitely has some Costa Rican influence. After dining around several great restaurants in San Jose, this was the one I found myself consistently coming back to. Professional chefs and a beautiful location.

Entering this hotel is like entering a castle. It is grand with stone steps lined with reading nooks down to the La Luz. We were the only couple there on a Friday night, but we enjoyed that. The food was expensive but we especially enjoyed the crème brulee assortment dessert.
Overall a lovely time out with my husband in a...

We have eaten here several times over the past year. To be consistent in this business means everything! We dream of the tomato, avocado, hearts of palm salad! Pasta is perfectly cooked. Servings are more than adequate. Love this place!!

I had a business meeting at the Hotel during the morning and we decide to stay for lunch!! Such an excellent choice !! The food was fantastic and the view of the restaurant is amazing!
Very recommended!!

Today I had the opportunity to have lunch in La Luz Restaurant with my colleagues, after we had a meeting we decided to stay and have lunch and it was the best decision. The staff is great and food was authentic. The environment of La Luz it's phenomenal with a unique view of Santa Ana valley! 100% recommended!

La Luz was in the hotel we stayed in, and I was pleasantly surprised by the excellent service and food that we enjoyed at the restaurant. I sampled a fish dish and loved it. Also, the atmosphere could not have been better. Windows open overlooking the neighboring town.

I have been here 3 times prior with the new management and once before the ownership change took place. There has been a huge improvement and the new management does try new ideas and innovational strategies to drive business impact!
The decor polish up and the use of the garden areas was a smart move and does add lots of...

So I went to the hotel in August 2014 to have dinner at their restaurant "La Luz".
Food was good, service was good...but when I got to my car, the window was broken and all my personal stuff stolen!
The hotel administrator talked to me, told me they will cover everything, since the Security Guard didn't noticed when a car...
